drivers in formula one history. this was the race that changed nicky lauder's life the austrian was pulled from the burning wreckage by fellow driver later a priest read the then reigning world champion his last rites despite his horrific burns and lung damage here stonily return to race just 6 weeks later he would go on to claim 2 more world titles and a glittering career his remarkable comeback and rivalry with british driver james hunt inspired the hollywood movie rush overcoming adversity remained a mantra of louder throughout his life. but i want to say one thing i've seen people here winning and losing so that led to a dedicated this award to the losers because for my own experience winning is one thing but out of losing always learn more louder is the only man to have won championships for both ferrari and mclaren and ranks as one of the greatest racing drivers of all time in 1905 loud aswat

competitive racing for the world of aviation founding airlines allow the air and nicky. he never really left formula one those serving as a stakeholder a non-executive chairman with the mercedes team louder never overcame the damage caused by the fire which consumed his car 40 years before in 2018 he underwent a lung transplant in vienna. the 3 time world champion will be remembered both for his talent behind the wheel and his extraordinary courage to return to the sport he loved. and joining me to discuss nicky loungers legacy we have mark meadows from dede of the sport welcome aka sad day for the world of sport many of describing niki lauda as a legend they you've met him what kind of impression did he make on you just a very friendly guy mean after his retirement you used to come to basically every f one race he could come to he was a summarize of german television i've covered f one race is talked to him in the

paddock he would have time for absolutely everybody and if you wanted to know something about formula one you going to know which driver was moving to which to which race was going to be called off the counter the next year he really did know everything and as a racing driver he was one of the best i mean winning 3 will titles is no mean feat to do it when you've had this horrific accident to win 2 of them after the accident just shows what an amazing character he was and yeah it's a huge loss of form and one because it was very important also to the mercedes team as the non-executive director and you said one of the drivers' championship 3 times but it's the race that he did not win for which he's must remember to tell us yes indeed i mean it was he 976 rif it crashed at the german grand prix that was on the nordschleife a section of the new building which isn't used anymore that was the last time it was of a use because they realize it was just too dangerous especially 5 times longer than any of a one track in the world the steep banks on it is very thin straights it's so long

that the chances of paramedics getting to you quickly is always reduced so they just didn't use it i mean back in 97 is wrath remember f one drivers really took a huge risk there were basically drivers driving very over a dying every of a season and he amazingly managed to survive i mean the fireball was so huge that the driver that came to help and to pull him out of the wreckage had to go into the 5 all 3 times to relieve. and to get back in the cost 6 weeks later i mean most people wouldn't even go anywhere near a road car again never mind a former one car going to under 300 miles an hour and then to win 2 more world championships afterwards is just quite staggering i mean it's an amazing achievement and yet he will be sorely missed by everyone a f one i know because tributes have been coming in football overfull now do what happy to say yeah i mean social media has been awash with tribute towards him i mean you can have a look at some some tweets now from a woman as

a no confidence vote next monday following the almost resignations by ministers from the junior partner the far right freedom party the resignations came after charter sébastien courts proposed sacking his interior minister fundraising the corruption scandal that had already forced his vice chancellor heinz christiane to step down court said the interior minister would have to go to ensure an unbiased investigation into the scandal a bit the freedom party now threatening to back the no confidence vote the future of course his conservative government is uncertain as our correspondent barbara visit explains. chancellor sebastian cortes is now fighting for his political survival basically what he wants to do is continue with his government to elections in september he wants to just replace the ministers of the freedom party who stepped down collectively on monday by experts or high civil servants but it's not

certain whether the opposition rule allow that because during the course of this week courts will already be faced with a motion of no confidence and next week the vote could have been parliament things are moving fast in vienna. all depends on how the a position is going to be signed the freedom party has already said they want revenge against cortes they are going to vote against him the question is here will the social democrats follow suit or will they think of future possible coalitions as austria has seen so many off between conservatives and social democrats all this is open and courts this future is quite undecided what the voters will make of all this is equally unclear during the european elections next sunday probably the consequences are not going to be that great the freedom party is likely to lose some votes of course bought in september where the course is going to continue

claims its thinking of ways customers a 90 day reprieve means select american companies will be able to continue working with the chinese to ensure existing users of it smartphones and networks don't suffer too much disruption. but while way hasn't exactly showered the white house with facts and an interview with a chinese news site found a wrench young face said the u.s. had underestimated twal ways strength and ability to make its own components some analysts agree that what might have seemed like a setback for the company could prove a major opportunity. they're already in the cheap foreign market and still this is going to actually make make it probably better for them that they have something in-house that good will or they could actually make forms even cheaper. and said it in other markets the easing of restrictions comes a day after google barred huawei from some updates to its android operating system

showing the types of challenges that could lie ahead for the company but the u.s. isn't pulling the plug completely for now at least. i did have this business correspondent. is across that story and joins me now from frankfurt knows what prompted this change of heart by use authorities concern in qual way well i'm very much looks like president trump might have heard from his own tech community from his own tech companies because they are actually standing to lose a lot of money with that band that he put on huawei 1st of call of course and that group would be google a while way is of course a major customer for google using its android system and we played through yesterday already when google initially said they would stop working with huawei right away but there's other companies too there's intel there's silence as chip makers of course and all in all if you look at any huawei smartphone just about 70

percent of what goes into that smartphone in hardware as well as software comes from american companies so there is a lot of business interest on the american side too and we saw how that played out over the last 2 days initially when that ban was implemented tech companies lost a lot of value his shares went down and once that was reversed they made up at least part of parts of the loss and that's just this big stick small carrot approach to quell way tell us something about the u.s. economic policy. well i guess it tells us 2 things 1st of all and these 2 things might not be entirely new but 1st of all it reminds us of the way donald trump makes his policies in general he goes for something without thinking all through all the details involved as he clearly has done here he puts a burden on something he takes

a big step and then realizes that of course that has consequences and he might renegotiate something but it also tells us and that is something to keep in mind over the next couple of weeks as these u.s. chinese negotiations might continue he does play hardball he always has and now that president trump did not initially get a deal with the chinese the way of the terms that he wanted he is going after one of the biggest companies in a very personal way to bring china back to the table and maybe get a deal after all. on his terms. in frankfurt thank you very much feel analysis. now gotten francis ordered a hospital to resume giving food and water to a man who's been in a vegetative state for more than a decade 42 year old. has been completely paralyzed since a motorbike accident in 2008 his wife is pain to allow him to be due to die

but is that as contested a decision stating the family and the nation. the french media swooped as vast so long bears parents prepared for what was to be their final goodbye with their son he still cling to doing that killing him that killing him that monsters. paid for a long battle to prevent this happening. but not everyone in the family shares their view and some were clearly relieved lets it apply for this is the 1st time i've told myself it's going to happen and everything is being done to make it happen i'm just so i'm quite serene and ready for it to end. doctors began shutting down 42 year old vets only on bell's life support but the battle wasn't i've yet a paris court then ordered doctors to resume treatment it's the latest episode in a bitter legal battle that's divided lamberto family since a 2008 motorcycle accident left him in

a state of minimal consciousness doctors say his condition has deteriorated and that for years now he's been in a persistent vegetative state llambias wife rochelle his nephew and several siblings back to 2013 decision by his doctors to end life support his parents and 2 other siblings opposed it. llambias parents have brought and lost cases before french courts and the european court of human rights in repeated efforts to prevent his life support being ended earlier this month the united nations committee on the rights of persons with disabilities requested that french authorities suspend the decision to take him off life support while it examine the case monday's like decision from the paris appeal court ordered care to be continued until united nations committee could consider an appeal from lamberti parents. and for more on the case i'm joined by our correspondent louis embarrass he said of this

case has already been all the way to the european court of justice which ruled in favor of the wife's position that he should be allowed to die now the united nations has got involved but does the u.n. have any legal jurisdiction well that's the big question really and people here are divided on that the 1st french court said no it's not legally binding and the french government seems to think that as a vote but now another french court has said yes you have to wait for that decision so what's happening really is that this committee is now has now 6 months to look into the case of violence on there and then emits an opinion and apparently legal experts aren't actually don't agree on if the government and the the doctors in charge of need to follow these instructions for now though they have to wait until further notice but as we saw in the report there the long bear's mother is calling

doctors the monsters and accusing them of killing us on kili the family is very divided but what about the medical opinion in france. well a team of doctors taking care of him obviously seem to think that there is no hope and that he will die one day and that they need to switch him off so that he doesn't suffer anymore however there is a group of doctors several dozens of doctors who have published an op ed yesterday saying that they don't agree these doctors are specialized and in these cases of so-called people who are locked in or who are in a vegetative state for a very long time and they say it's just impossible to know what vance on the bare really wants and also he is not dying you just need to give him food and water but he's rather a disabled person and many other people here in france are in the same state about 1700 and we don't know what they want so we shouldn't make the decision for them

and this case has a drip of the french public is dominating media headlines why do you think this is the case well as you said it's a very emotional case it's splitting a family into 2 and also dividing public opinion but there's also one other thing which is somehow specific to france so the decision in this very emblematic case that has been going on for more than 10 years will certainly have an impact on other cases because here when there is one such emblematic decision other judges look that way and then are more inclined to go the same way and to make a similar decision and that's obviously what many others of the families of these 1700 other people in such a permanent vegetative state are afraid of ride elisa loose in bowers thank you very much. and now to my love you have voting is underway to elect

a new president and parliament president putin what he is seeking reelection for a 2nd term now with a population of about 20000000 malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world but it's also one of the youngest now 70 percent of people below the age of 30 so what are their concerns and the job creation rent-a the township of salema in central and he says all candidates there are focusing their efforts to win over the youth vote voter apathy is not a problem here turnout in these elections is expected to be very high the polling stations here opened at 6 am already but many of the people here came already earlier the country is expecting one of the most unpredictable elections in the history and 3 candidates standing the chance to win and the rule is you don't need 50 percent or more to win the elections you just need the largest share of the vote so let's have

a look down here at the list of the candidates at the very bottom you find the current president. who is trying to run for a 2nd term he claims that he improved infrastructure and also stabilized the country his major contenders. and vice president. during their campaign rallies both of them mainly try to address the issues of young people of the youth that make up more than 50 percent of the registered voters in this elections many young people here are not happy about the current situation my view remains one of the poorest countries in the world the education system has problems and also there are not enough jobs for the young people. that was increased not to our series marking the 70th anniversary of the german constitution this week also known as the bisek law it came into effect in may 949 and in trying to fundamental values that human rights freedom and equality for all it was drawn up under the supervision of the allies the aim was to ensure that after the years of the nazi dictatorship the
